Alesia - Eluveitie

The grass was as green as it always was that sinister day

The blackbird sang their songs as they always did that black-letter day

The day we passed the great gate for the very last time

I did not look back, I knew we’d stay

I knew they would not let us go leave the death strip

I saw the gleam in their eyes of fear and enslavement

The crushing weight

Beloved ground take me home

Alesia, Alisanos

Wake me when I’m gone

Lanotouta, eternity

Proclaim our barren sacrifice

On that ground we cherished life

And embraced death

As the children’s cries trailed off

Sob yielded deathly hush

Alesia, Alisanos

Wake me when I’m gone

Lanotouta, eternity

Proclaim our barren sacrifice

The grass was as green as it always was that sinister day

As we walked the alleys like thousand times before

I knew we’d stay

Alesia, Alisanos

Wake me when I’m gone

Lanotouta, eternity

Proclaim my barren sacrifice

Outside Alesia

We offered a living sacrifice

Outside the doors of Alesia

Where our tears run dry
